Plot[edit]

Roy King's gang robs a bank and flees to Mexico on a train. Roy meets a beautiful woman, Alicia, and marries her, only to have her run off with all of the money.

An offer comes his way to blow up the arsenal of the Mexican army, then rob their representatives when they take money across the border to replace the destroyed weapons. A daring plan gets the job done, only to have Roy double-crossed once more, unable to get his money.
